Bus to Bd de Grenelle

We are staying in the Bd de Grenelle near the Eiffel Tower and would like to travel by bus from Gare du Nord (I know the metro would be easier but my companion doesn%26#39;t %26#39;do%26#39; tubes or metros!!) I think I%26#39;ve worked out that we could get a no. 43 to St Lazare and then change to a no. 80 all the way to the hotel. Is this correct?





Advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Not knowing exactly where your hotel is — %26quot;near the Eiffel Tower%26quot; is a bit vague — it seems to me it would be a whole lot easier to take the #42 bus direct from GduN to the Dupleix stop on bv. de Grenelle. Might be a slightly longer walk but you would avoid the transfer and probably get there a good bit quicker.

We are staying at the Hotel Europe near Avenue de la Motte Picquet. Thanks for your suggestion of the 42 - sounds a lot easier.

Shouldn%26#39;t be more than a five minute walk if that.



Bon voyage!

Merci!

We will be staying in the same hotel 2 weeks from today, we%26#39;ve been there before, very nice small hotel and easy to get everywhere you want. Look out for the very small lift to the floors, its soooo tiny its funny! have a lovely trip!

If you have stayed there before, wonder if you know of any good reasonably priced restaurants on the Bvd de Grenelle for the evening?





Thanks.

There are lots of restuarants along the bld de grenelle, many different styles too, last time we went we did%26#39;nt do any of them as we were on a really tight budget but used the pizza take away practically next door to the hotel 4e for a huge pizza. There are one or two renowned restuarants in the area where politicians and the like go, I have a list and will post it up in a minute when i find it for you. When are you going, may I ask?

This weekend. Thanks.

Here are a few............





La Gitane



La Galleria



Le Café du Commerce

Also forgot to mention, it was only 15e for a taxi from GduN to the hotel last time and far less hassle, and also theres a Maccies across from the hotel too if you are desperate, but you shouldnt be............Monoprix straight across from the hotel with food store upstairs! I heard their ham baguettes are to die for!
